3rd Grade Math Review for Rounding

3rd Grade Math Review for Rounding
Math, Numbers, Grade 3, 4, Teacher Tools, Assessments, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets

This product is perfect for 3rd grade math standards review. It's a worksheet where students review place and value of a digit in a number, as well as rounding to the nearest 10 and 100. While it was created for the 3rd grade standard of writing, 3.NBT.1, it would be a great review for 4th graders before you begin greater rounding of numbers. I find when I teach rounding that a few students understand the concept right away. Several don't. The ones who don't, usually need a visual. This worksheet has students look at two number lines. One is looking at rounding to the nearest 10. The other is looking at rounding to the nearest 100. Having this visual, and having students underline, circle, and color which numbers round up or down, will help your struggling students. Since this is just one worksheet, it would be perfect for review, or even an assessment. If you want more worksheets for rounding, check out a few of my other worksheets: ~Math Worksheets for Place Value and Rounding ~3rd Grade Color by Code Math Worksheet - Round to the Nearest 10 ~3rd Grade Color by Code Math Worksheet - Round to the Nearest 100
